Question

If the cell whose nuclear material is shown in the figure above continues toward completion of mitosis,which of the following events would occur next?
A)cell membrane synthesis 
B)alignment of chromosomes at the metaphase plate 
C)segregation of daughter chromosomes toward the poles 
D)formation of telophase nuclei 
E)synthesis of sister chromatids

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nuclear material shown in the figure is in the stage of anaphase, where the sister chromatids have separated and are being pulled towards the opposite poles of the cell. Therefore, the next event that would occur in completion of mitosis would be segregation of daughter chromosomes toward the poles, which is the process that occurs in telophase. Choices A, B, D, and E all occur at earlier stages of mitosis.
